Presale password is ?????
Just got mine plus parking.. this show will sell out FAST!

Probably not as fast if you hadn't broadcast the password to the world. Poor etiquette.

Well, some people(like me) appreciate getting free presale passwords ;)

The rest of us sign up for newsletters and fan clubs and enjoy the early rewards of being in the know, mocking those that didn't go that extra mile.
But I bet the rookie scalpers appreciate you helping them out.

If you didnt notice, there is a two ticket limit per household, credit card, name and email to prevent scalpers...
Sharing is good.. now please troll away ;D

Smackie, I'd watch out. This guy's rank is a 3! Your piddly 11834 rank is nothing compared to th...
Oh wait. That's POST count. My bad.

I get ya NKOTB - the internets have been pretty boring these days and even picking a fight here isn't worth it.
MrNeil - In the past, the etiquette of this board has been to ask folks to send a PM if they want the pre-sale password so the real fans get first crack, but whatever. If you want to make it searchable by the googles so any monkey can get it, be my guest. What would I know - I'm just a troll...

thread jack. hey neil, i need a password for not having to go to work tomorrow. can you help me out? sharing is caring, bro.
and . . . i just got roger waters the wall tickets!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
the cheaper ones yes, but i was not about to pay those floor seat prices. and i am under the impression that you'll get a better show with the visuals and all from a "higher" advantage.
word is born.
hopefully better than:

Goldfrapp! I like the new album.
-
I don't really think he's giving much away... wow, a password that's the title of the first track on the new disc... such mystery...
besides - if you look, there are still tickets remaining for the NYC show that went on sale weeks ago. I'm not so sure this will sell out as quickly as you think
of course - that's just my opinion, I could be wrong

It is indeed poor etiquette to post presale password on the forum and were it not for the fact that I use my iPhone to read the forum during the day, this thread would have been history. It's especially poor form to post presale passwords printed in the Volume newsletter, it's a nice perk for those people who take the extra few seconds to sign up for that nifty publications.

hit three tickets? are you a ticket abuser? do we need to send your tickets to a shelter where you can't find them?
-
i am a dumb dumb

3 tickets?
I'd hit that.

OK!
I find it funny that you changed your mind after Kosmo posted but not me because last night I was prepared to post "Look, if Hutch agrees with your logic, it HAS to be wrong."

I have a six month old baby with a cold. I don't have time to read every post but I didn't see anyone mentioning the volume newsleettterpresale heads up..
Anyways, I ain't here to make friends so if you want to continue with the dick comments go for it... Frankly when I combine you, Computer Fuckface and the other regulars who act like a bunch of middle school kids this place loses a lot of its luster.

You could always, you know, leave. That's what normal people do when they think something sucks and everyone associated with that something thinks they suck back.

And speaking of "normal" Computer Fuckface: they don't at like you... insulting everyone left and right.

Hutch- admittedly your general ignorance, inability to admit when wrong, propensity for picking fights and unwillingness to acquaint yourself with the context of a discussion before opening your big mouth really make this place sparkle.

just curious -- since so many of you are in an uproar over this. but do you get this upset when you see passwords posted on brooklynvegan - or do you thank your lucky stars that its up there and you didnt need to search for it. because i dont see the 9:30 forum as all that different than BV.
-
There isn't the same expectation nor etiquette. And BV doesn't have its own passwords, they just broadcast others'.
If BV had its own newsletter and asked that passwords given there not be posted on the website - then there would be reason to get upset.
-
i figured it was a password from goldfrapp. so that would have been cool for everyone - so long as it was not a 9:30 password? (not that im planning on posting passwords for anything, just curious)

I think the entire thing is ridiculous and anytime anyone asks for a presale password and I know it I PM it to them. People aren't freaking special because they get the 930 Club's newsletter mailed to them.

What's brooklynvegan?
Just kidding. Brooklynvegan, and the likes of web sites like them, upset me more than anything else and is completely different than the 9:30 Board. Brooklynvegan gives away passwords simply to drive traffic to their site via google searches, where they make money on advertising. They might as well be chokeychicken as far I'm concerned.
I think there's a very simple point that is being missed when passwords are posted in the public domain:
It means there's nothing special about having a presale. Absolutely nothing. It might as well be a public sale with much fewer tickets, so why keep doing them? And when they disappear, I'll be the first one here saying I told you so.
Kosmo brought up more intricate arguments like it keeps the 9:30 from increasing their volume subscribers and ways for the 9:30 to better reach their customers because there's no incentive, and all of those make sense from a business standpoint. But the simple fact is they'll go away as soon as the fans start complaining that they're not serving their purpose.
Hey, maybe MrNeil, who has sinse left the board, was lying about the fact that he thought it would sell out fast and wanted to increase ticket sales (I didn't even bother to check the NY ticket sales, so kudos to whomever did). Maybe he's a street teamer or their publicist - I don't know. But I like the way the board handled presale passwords through PMs in the past - it protected the uniqueness of the presale and allowed us to judge who, by virtue of their reputation here, was worthy of receiving the password from fellow boardies.
-
I like Julian's take. PM them away. But I do think posting them for all to see if kind of lame.

That was a good time (Sept/Oct 05?). Too bad they deleted it:
